Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife-Chapter 368 - 338: Going Back on One’s Word
Su Linger slowly walked up to the man in black, her eyes coldly surveying him.
A bodyguard stepped forward and directly pulled off his face mask.
"So it’s you!" Su Linger’s eyes were icy. "What benefits did Su Mo offer you to make you take such a risk to kill us?"
Su Mo is her cousin.
He’s also a descendant of her second grandfather’s lineage.
"Don’t think you’ll get a word out of me, kill me or torture me, whatever you please!" the assassin sneered, putting on a defiant look and even raising his neck.
Su Linger took a dagger from the bodyguard’s hand and swiftly slashed it across his neck!
Blood splattered out...
"You—" The man in black looked utterly incredulous.
I asked you to kill me, and you actually did?
Shouldn’t you keep me alive to testify against Su Mo?
Su Linger said, "Chop off his head and bring it back to the Su Family. Then we can directly eliminate Su Mo!"
Now, her grandfather is critically ill, and the Su Family is in turmoil. She has to use thunderous means to keep those with ulterior motives in check.
As for sparing this guy’s life?
There’s absolutely no need!
As long as he’s Su Mo’s subordinate, there’s no way Su Mo will escape punishment.
Chen Xiao turned his head to glance at Su Linger. Unexpectedly, although this woman seemed silly, she showed a decisive side. He had underestimated her. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
After dealing with these men, several cars continued forward.
On the road, Su Linger kept her attention on Leng Baiyu, curious about the woman’s background!
Since getting in the car, Leng Baiyu had spoken very little, but the aura she exuded was not to be underestimated.
Suddenly, she remembered a person.
If she remembered correctly, Lu Rugao once mentioned that Chen Xiao’s senior sister had asked the Lu Family for the Mysterious Yin Pearl! And Chen Xiao’s senior sister... is the Dragon Soul Sect, Leng Baiyu!
At this point, she immediately figured it out.
This woman before her must be the exceptionally talented Chief Instructor Leng!
Her demeanor became more respectful, and she cautiously tried to converse with Leng Baiyu, but Leng Baiyu appeared uninterested and unwilling to engage.
Seeing her attitude, Su Linger didn’t dare to disturb further, retracting the topic.
After a day of travel.
The group entered the Capital City region.
Zhao Xingyu was immediately awestruck by the bustling scene of cars and tall buildings, truly the most prosperous place in the Divine Land; the flair was different!
In the Kunlun Realm, where would you see such a sight?
She was full of curiosity about everything before her, her eyes sparkling.
The car continued to advance, heading for the Su Family.
Chen Xiao had been resting with his eyes closed all along.
Upon getting out of the car, Su Linger, with a stern face, led the group inside strongly!
Inside the Su Family at this moment, the atmosphere was solemn, the guards tight.
In the Su Family hall, Su Aoxiong’s eldest son, Su Jianglin, was pacing anxiously in the hall.
A few days ago, the old man began showing symptoms of a serious illness, predicting something was wrong with his health.
He immediately called many doctors.
But whether Chinese medicine or Western medicine, they were at a loss regarding his condition, so he had no choice but to ask Su Linger to seek out the legendary "Old Divine Doctor" for a stroke of luck.
Now, Su Linger had invited someone over, but it was the Old Divine Doctor’s apprentice.
Though he knew the Old Divine Doctor’s apprentice must be extraordinary, after all, he’s still young and inexperienced! He’s uncertain if this apprentice can truly cure the old man!
The Su Family is now in a delicate situation; if the old man suddenly passes, the family will enter a split stage, external and internal turmoil will lead to instant collapse!
So now, the situation is urgent.
"Brother, why are you anxious? Don’t worry, the old man’s going to be fine!" Just then, a slightly younger middle-aged man spoke slowly, "This time, I’ve brought those Divine Doctors from the Hua Medical Sect to treat the old man, they’re all top bigshots. With them taking action, the old man will surely be safe!"
This is Su Jianglin’s second brother, Su Jianghe.
Upon hearing, Su Jianglin’s eyes trembled too, "Hua Medical Sect? Is it that recently established Hua Medical Sect?"
"That’s right!" Su Jianghe smiled with an air of pride, "Recently, those Divine Doctors in the Divine Land had been busy preparing to establish the Hua Medical Sect, so we couldn’t invite people back then, but after my relentless requests, I finally managed to establish connections and invite all these Divine Doctors to come along."
"With them taking action, the old man’s assured safety!"
Upon hearing that, Su Jianglin inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief; he had heard about the build-up of Hua Medical Sect.
Li Zhengming, Elder Bai, and other Chinese medicine community veterans realized after the Zhonghai face-off against the Ghost Medical Sect from Yang Country that modern Chinese medicine had fallen into oblivion, urgently working on change.
Thus, these venerable leaders from Chinese medicine united, forming Hua Medical Sect, working together to cultivate the new generation for the Chinese Medicine Community.
Su Jianglin remarked, "This time, I’ve invited five veterans from the Chinese medicine community, all top-tier Divine Doctors, each charging ten billion in medical fees!"
"With this fifty billion investment, they’ll certainly pull out all the stops to save the old man!"
Upon hearing this, Su Jianglin also breathed a sigh of relief, this approach felt much safer.
Even if the Old Divine Doctor’s apprentice fails, these bigshots from the Chinese medicine community should be capable of preserving the old man’s life! Actually, he believed these bigshots’ skills far exceeded those of the Old Divine Doctor’s apprentice since their age and fame were clearly evident!
Nonetheless, letting the Old Divine Doctor’s apprentice have a try wouldn’t hurt.
"Second Brother, fortunately, you’re here; otherwise, I really wouldn’t know what to do."
Su Jianglin chuckled, showing confidence, "Brother, you excel in family matters, but when it comes to networks, your frivolous Su Family’s Second Brother outpaces you!"
"Hahaha—" Upon hearing that, Su Jianglin wasn’t irritated and instead heavily patted his shoulder several times.
This time, Su Jianghe had made a significant contribution!
Just then, Su Linger and Su Zhengkang, escorted by Chen Xiao and two others, walked in rapidly.
"Dad, I’ve brought back the Old Divine Doctor’s apprentice! This is Mr. Chen, the Old Divine Doctor’s apprentice!"
Upon hearing this, Su Jianglin nodded slightly, "Much obliged, Mr. Chen, for coming all this way."
Chen Xiao responded indifferently, "No need to be polite, I just came for the medical fee."
Upon hearing this, Su Jianglin’s face showed slight embarrassment.
This young man was quite blunt in his speech!
He hesitated a bit before asking, "Mr. Chen, may I inquire how much you’d like for your medical fee?!"
Su Linger quickly interjected, "Dad, I’ve already agreed with Mr. Chen, it’s fifty billion! I’ve been begging him for a long time before he agreed!"
"Moreover, that Su Mo sent people to assassinate us, and Mr. Chen helped us siblings on the way!"
Chen Xiao responded indifferently, "No need for thanks, saving you two costs a fee of twenty billion."
Su Jianglin: "..."
Su Jianghe: "..."
This is too exaggerated!
Charging fifty billion for a single treatment!
Charging twenty billion for a single rescue!
Going mad over money?
Su Jianghe couldn’t help but sneer, "Young man, haven’t you seen money before? Charging fifty billion in medical fees, who do you think you are?"
"Do you know who you are?"
"Like Li Zhengming, Elder Bai, these top veterans in the Chinese medicine community, I invited them this time, and they’re only charging ten billion each! That’s already a sky-high price!"
"You, a young punk, dare to ask for fifty billion, why don’t you go rob a bank?"
Chen Xiao replied indifferently, "They charge ten billion because they’re worth ten billion, while I charge fifty billion because I’m worth fifty billion."
"Don’t forget, it was your Su Family who spent a day and night begging outside my master’s place to invite me over! I didn’t shamelessly ask to come to your Su Family!"
Su Jianghe sneered, "We didn’t know you’d be so greedy as to open your lion’s mouth! Fifty billion? If we give you fifty thousand, we’re already honoring you!"
"Uncle, please speak more respectfully..." Su Linger quickly signaled to him.
Su Jianghe outright ignored her, continuing his ridicule, "Linger, you must’ve been completely fooled by this guy! To put it bluntly, with five veterans taking action, why would we need him? He opens his lion’s mouth, yet I still tolerate him, that’s already being courteous!"
Chen Xiao chuckled, "So, is the Su Family planning to go back on their word?"
